If I purchased something from example coles and tapped "99.99" and after reveived my 5% rebate, the. Later went back to coles and refunded my purchase, do I get to still keep my 5% rebate from ing? Was thinking it that worked, we could continuesly make infinite cash by repeating the same process, buy, refund, buy, refund, $5 rebate, each time.

I had considered this before I found out you cant get cash out with pay-wave my idea was to buy a choclate bar and get 90$ cash out = free candy bar and a few dollars free..
but my master plan was foiled :(
yes, you would still get the 5% rebate. i did this at bunnings..
buy 2 different items.. lets say 1 is $1.00 and the other is $98.tell them you change your mind on the $98 item and want a refund. they will refund the $98 to your account and this refund transaction has nothing to do with your original transaction.
Later went back to coles and refunded my purchase, do I get to still keep my 5% rebate from ing?
been there done that a long time ago. i can confirm you get to keep the rebate. when i did the refund i just hit the credit button (i'm not even sure if paywave works for refunds?).
Yes refunds do work for paywave, I work for couple retail chains, so your saying ing won't know that your deliberately refunding just to keep the $5 rebate???you could make thousands then… If anyone has done this please confirm.
This is why we can't have nice things!
Everyone loves these types of promos it only takes a couple of people to destroy it for everyone. You should be ashamed.
True!!
It works, but is it really worth the time and hassle of buying something and then going back to the store later and refunding it for $4.99?
To be honst its very little effort, Well, just to give you an idea, buy a laptop for 1k, pay wave it separately for $99.99 tap 10 times. Refund straight away that's $50 bux! Repeat same process. there are no refund limits @ retail chains, best place to do them. knowing a friend makes it better! They ant doing anything wrong, so are you, No ones breaking T&C, all good.
When I asked to tap the second time for a purchase > $100, the checkout chick saw something come up on the screen and asked for ID. I got my rebate but I think if you tap it 10 times in a row alarm bells might ring at Visa or MC and who knows what happens next. Maybe they might disable your card for suspicion it got stolen and you lose the use of it for a while until it's sorted out.
pre-purchasing gift cards with paywave might be a better option for large $$$ purchases
Iv actually taped 10 times with my grocery shopping at Coles separate increments $99.99 didn't have a problem, except the part which she did. Get a little anoyed.
nice to know you can do that
But spending $1000 with Coles I don't understand. :)
Family shopping, usually shop in large bulk every 3 months lasts a couple of months.
What I don't understand is that you could probably get those groceries cheaper elsewhere, but maybe you live in an area with no choice.
They will refund you the rebated amount.
